Dating is complicated enough on its own; when you add in the confusion of online dating sites, it can be just plain intimidating. There is a technique to navigating the virtual playing field. Not to mention effective: Each day, an average of 236 people who met on e get married. So, how do you go from logging on to finding your perfect match?

Your Profile Picture It can seem difficult to stand out in the vast sea of online daters; the best way to do so is by creating a great profile—and be sure to always include a photo.Stand out from the crowd, rather than drowning the reader in cliché. Talk about actual interests: sports, books, art, music, films. Similarly, don't tell us you've got a good sense of humour – generally, people who have to say they do, don't. Keep it light, keep it funny, keep it confident (but not arrogant). On a similar note, make sure it's not a weird photo.Of course you're a good friend, of course you like to have fun. Describe your best features (but try not to boast). Obviously this means different things for different things, but a few pointers: if you're a man, flexing your biceps and/or posing topless is not as sexy as you may think it is; if you're a woman, try not to be overly posed."There weren't a lot of people using the Internet to date back then," she says."I had to go to Kinko's and scan in a picture of myself for my profile." Soon after that, she was on a date.
